FALL RIVER — Employees of Fall River Municipal Credit Union paid $5 on Feb. 14 to dress in jeans and wear red to help the American Heart Association in support of AHA's ongoing research and education on women and heart disease.

Part of a national “Go Red” movement, the event helps bring attention to the fact that heart disease is the number one killer of women in this country.

“The “Go Red Day” is a chance for us to arm ourselves with knowledge about this disease and to raise awareness and much needed funds that will help the American Heart Association advance its research and education efforts,” credit union staff said in a statement.
